School Education

Introductory English Centres

Most ACT schools provide special English language help for children with non-English speaking backgrounds. Specialist centres provide intensive English language tuition for students with little or no English. They may attend full-time for up to nine months to improve their knowledge of the English language to enable them to take their places in normal school classes. 

Additional information on programs for students with English language difficulties may be obtained from the English as a Second Language (ESL) Unit of the Department Telephone +61 2 6205 9182.
